Empty Words of Nothing

by Unseen Exposure   Nov 20, 2005


Sporadic bursts of caring
bloody streams and vicious wailing
and i half expected you to be there
-empty words of nothing-
the sounds are unbearable
and through the floorboards they can hear them
plug your ears tonight, they're coming
because, because..
-empty words of nothing-
face to the carpet
is it dark or just blurred?
i can't see through the saline
-empty words of nothing-
open up these lungs, i'm gagging
it sounds cliche next to silence
so i replay your lies
-empty words of nothing-
lift me up from this position
i can't stay this way forever
at least i'm sitting up now
-empty words of nothing-
i can breathe easier this way
instead of choking on your memory
and it takes all i have
to say the things i'm dying to
but they're just
to get me by
but they're just
-empty words of nothing-

^ I don't know what this is, I just kinda threw it together in the moment.
